Let me talk about my views on the four details.
Detail 1: Three years ago, my father led a pair of children and other climbers who were climbing an almost vertical rock wall. Suddenly a novice fell from the top of the cliff. They could not dodge and were hung on a rope that was fixed to the rock wall by a safety bolt. , The father is at the bottom of the rope, the son Peter is in the middle, and the daughter Anne is at the top. The safety bolt gradually loosened in the cracks of the rock wall. Obviously, one safety bolt could not bear the weight of three people. This is, the father asked his son to take out the dagger and let him cut the rope from behind. The son Peter couldn't bear to start, but the safety bolt continued to slide down. Seeing that the three were about to die, his son Peter was helpless and cut his father's lifeline with his eyes closed. The father finally fell to the bottom, in exchange for the safety of his children.
This is the greatness of father's love! This is the right choice for a sane mountaineer! Just imagine, if the son cut the rope from behind him without getting the father's order, even though it was a sensible act, he could give up one and save two. I believe that the rescued son would be guilty and have a lifelong conscience. But my sister still couldn't forgive my brother's actions at the time. After that, Peter blamed himself and never climbed any more. His sister Anne said that he was afraid and running away. Annie continued to engage in her father's mountaineering career, and finally became the fastest climbing woman and appeared on the cover of National Geographic. Annie said that only in this way can she be the closest to her father's soul.
Detail 2: Annie finally organized an expedition on her own to attack K-II, the second main peak of the Himalayas. Unexpectedly, she encountered an avalanche, and many team members were killed in the snow-capped mountains. At the foot of the mountain climbing base, Peter learned that his sister Anne and two companions had survived through a weak communication signal (Moore's code), and everyone was delighted. But then there was another dead silence. Peter appealed to immediately organize a rescue team of six people to find them at a height of 26,000 feet and rescue them down the mountain. Under the harsh natural conditions of high air pressure and severe hypoxia, it is easy to get emphysema, and it is a miracle to survive. But now people don’t know where the three people are. It must be rescued within thirty-six hours. No one wants to take this risk. Is it worth taking six healthy lives to risk three people who have little chance of surviving?
As long as there is a little possibility, we should try our best to save lives! At Peter's appeal, a team of six people including himself was finally formed. When these six people decided to go up the mountain to save others, no matter whether they succeeded or not, whether they could return safely or not, their lives had been eternal, and they had already demonstrated the greatness and nobility of humanity! We should not use the investment and return principles of secular economics to deal with life issues. If so, how do we look at the rescue operations that will spare no effort time and time again when disaster strikes? Especially when we are also in disaster, how should we think about this problem? Life is great and priceless, we should not ignore life! To ignore life is to ignore everything.
Detail 3: The three people trapped in the cliff depend on dexamethasone to sustain their lives with difficulty. At this time, Tommy was injured and had emphysema prematurely and needed to consume more dexamethasone. When Annie decided to inject him with dexamethasone, she was stopped by another businessman, Van Elliot.
Annie: He will die if he doesn't hit him.
Merchant: We all know he can't hold on anymore, you have tried your best. We cannot waste resources.
Annie: Saving people is not a waste.
Merchant: Unless saved alive. Why should two people bury this person?
The businessman was determined to tell Tommy the truth.
Businessman: You are a professional mountaineer. You know the reality. Even if they (rescuers) come, they can't send you down the mountain...Annie wants to help you with a lifesaver...This is just a delay.
Tommy: You want me to die? What do you mean?
Merchant: I don't mean anything. I want you to respect your life and don't waste him. If I were you...
Tommy: You are not me!
Merchant: Yes, I am not. You have to understand that you will not only kill me, but also her.
While Annie was asleep, the merchant killed Tommy.
This is indeed a difficult question to choose. Reason tells us that it may be correct for the businessman to tell Tommy the truth and ask Tommy to wait for his death. Tommy should also recognize the situation and respect life. But Tommy has no intention of waiting for death, and the businessman has no right to deprive Tommy of his right to life.
Detail 4: When climbing K-II four years ago, Van Ellio hired Wei Mengge’s wife as a guide, but the bad weather made them trapped on the mountain. Van Ellio ran out of his ground testimony and robbed the female guide’s land. Semisone. As a result, the female guide died, and the businessman escaped after multiple injections of dexamethasone. The businessman later said that the female guide's dexamethasone accidentally fell during the climbing process and caused her death. Wei Mengge is guarding the snow-capped mountains. He has been looking for the remains of his wife. Wei Mengge also participated in this rescue operation. When he found his wife who had died of freezing and found out the true cause of his death, Wei Mengge said that he would kill Van Elliot himself. Finally, the rescue team found Annie and them. Wei Mengge did not kill Van Elliot, but decided to rescue Van Elliot who killed his wife. But this time there was a danger similar to three years ago, with multiple lives tied to a rope. Peter and his sister Anne are up, Wei Meng is in the middle, and Van Elliot is last. Wei Meng closed his eyes and prayed for a moment, then decisively cut the rope in front of him with a dagger, and saved Peter brothers and sisters, and van Elliot and himself fell into the abyss.
When life is in a state of extreme embarrassment, between life and death, the good and beautiful in human nature; the evil and ugly are all magnified. On weekdays, he looks grand-sounding and polite, but at critical moments, he does not hesitate to deprive others of the right to life for the continuation of his own life. Where is the conscience? What is the value of such a life?
Love life, love your own life. Under extreme conditions, still have the courage to survive, don't give up easily, and always believe that you can overcome difficulties and get out of difficulties. For example, the protagonist in Jack London's novel "Love Life", as long as there is strong perseverance, there must be hope, as long as there is immortal hope, you can be reborn!
Respect life, respect the lives of others. Everyone has an equal right to life, and no one has the right to end the lives of others at will. Never disregard the lives of others because of your own selfishness. When the right to life of others is seriously threatened, our society must stand up and give it all to save lives. Because the right to life always comes first, what is more important than life?
The humanity thinking triggered by "Vertical Limit" is multifaceted. It tells us: life is tough and tenacious, life is great and priceless.
Love life and respect life! ! !
